Which Go frameworks are recommended to assist with the creation of console based UI and GUI?
Actually I use https://github.com/mitchellh/cli to create a cli for a larger project. I like it because its small and easy to use. This lib is used in terraform. So its mature and reliable enough for me :-)
- may I ask for a code-review on a tool I wrote that lets you cast YouTube videos to your smart TV from command-line?

How to Create Console Screen Buffer in go?
Hi guys, I have fixed the problem. The problem was as stated: remove terminal behavior like when a key is pressed and held it does not work as needed. For example if I want to move character when user press key the player (character) will move one step then stops then move fast like text curser. The solution is not by using [Console Screen Buffer] the Tcell is enough, But the problem is caused by the way the input is read from the user as u/pekim says in comments it is a "Typical behaviour in most environments (not just Windows)". So to fix this you need to use windows API (w32) and read key using GetAsyncKeyState() that will fix the problem.
Use tcell instead of this ugly mess.

Need a TUI with multiline text input or good interactive CLI-interface style support
There's quite a variety of tui libraries in Go with all kinds of different tradeoffs. Likely you won't find one that does just exactly what you want (paren matching support seems particularly unlikely out of the box, dunno if you'll find something you can plug in). tview and the underlying, lower-level tcell may be useful. I see termbox mentioned a lot here though that looks more like a toolbox for building such things than a solution itself.
